Here It Comes

Comments

As a rail enthusiast I really like this one! We are booked to go on the Tanfield Railway in County Durham over the coming Coronation long weekend and looking forward to that steam experience.

I can hear it!!

Nostalgic painting brings back memories Chris. The Flying Scotsman came through Milford Derbyshire a few days ago.

Nicely done Chris 😊

A very interesting artistic solution.

Good one Chris. I too remember the steam train age, specificaly our our school holiday trips to South Wales and having to change trains at Crewe. A big, noisy, dirty and scary place to a young child!

Thank you David I hope you have a wonderful relaxing time away.

Thank you Heather Carole Coral Stephen Lea Labour Val and Spencer for all your kind comments. Much appreciated as always.

I can just remember waiting at the village station waiting for the steam train to Cleethorpes for the day when I was about five-ish. Love steam trains, great painting and memories Chris.

Lovely, Chris, especially the viewing angle and you can feel the excitement! (I'm another one who loves steam trains -N. York Moors and Settle to Carlisle - wonderful experiences!)

Love the design of the foliage and the disappearing track Chris.

A couple of days ago I'm sure I read or heard the Flying Scotsman would be coming through Gloucestershire on the main line. This took me back to a part of my youth when I like many youngsters of the fifties would be out train spotting. So hear it comes reminded me of those times seeking an advantage spot usually above on a bridge. Sadly my enthusiasm waned with the loss of steam.
